yes, took me a while, but I found an ear and an eye in that top photo - she is a scaredy one isn't she. Still she has obviously decided the tunnel is a safe place to be, :Luv:

You have a better eye sight than me all i can see is bundle of fluff  :Luv: 

I would like to ask actually the lady i got her from advised me to block the one hiding hole which did work last night as she sat on the chair and advised me to close the bedroom door as she was going from one hiding place to the other all the time without me being any where near her.

I don't bother her in the tunnel at least it means she has to pass me to use her tray food and and warter areas. Is this the right way to go about things or should i start to open the bedroom door again ?   I leave it open when i go to sleep hopeing she might feel its safe

She's gorgeous, what's her story BC? 

I think whoever you spoke to has given you sound advice, as long as she has got somewhere she feels safe and secure (her tunnel) and she knows she won't be bothered in there.  When she starts to gain a bit more confidence then open up the doors again.  Just let her do everything at her pace, I know it probably feels a bit frustrating as you'd obviously love her to be super confident but it really is very early days and I'm sure she'll come round soon enough :)

Shes a pedigree cat she was kept by a breeder for that purpose now her kitten days are over   they wanted to find a quiet home for her i have her full pedigree chart etc She was being bullied by her other cats so was mostly confined to the bedroom she has been very well cared for and I'm in contact with the lady she came from as she wants to know how shes getting on

I just bought a drinkwell fountain on ebay 20 quid  ;D  will have to go in living room some where lack of plug points hopefully thatl be an extra thing to bring her out a bit
